  • Okay, I’ve read into your post a bit more and something is fishy. You have libc6 for different CPU-architectures installed.

    Programs for i368 and amd64 should not be installed on the same machine. The error probably stems from that.

    Run the following to find out the architecture:

    uname -p
    

    If it says ‘x86_64’ then it’s amd64 and if it’s something like 'i368’ then it’s that. Otherwise, your system might be really borked…

    And then remove the wrong one.




  • No they didn’t and they still don’t really do that.

    There are too many things (nowadays?) where you have to literally write a question on reddit, stack overflow or Lemmy or the likes and explain your situation in minute detail, because what you find online through search engines is only the standard case which just so happens to not work for you for some odd reason.

    Believe me, when I say that, because I always try search engines first, second and third, before even thinking of using some bs-spitting AI, but it really helped me with two very special problems in the last month.


  • It really depends, what you want to play. Old games run great for me, emulation is also good.

    New games mostly work if they are not competetitive multiplayer.

    Mods also mostly work for the games I play (FTL and Celeste e.g.), also mods through steam workshop like in Tabletop Simulator just work for me.

    What didn’t work are as mentioned some multiplayer games that are too harsh on anti cheat. SMITE e.g. works, but LoL doesn’t.

    As others mentioned, its best to have either a native version or an entry in ProtonDB with gold or platinum.











  • Since the other replies don’t seem too beginner friendly I’ll try another way:

    The desktop environment determines how your taskbar looks and your start menu. Also the edges windows and the buttons to close and minimize windows. Also some basic programs like the system settings.

    Mint and bazzite are distributions. They bundle software, test it and sometimes develop it further (like the mint guys do with their desktop environment cinnamon). Also they provide the package manager and the packages and their versions that can be installed through it. (Others can always be installed through other means but a lot is available through it)
